Confession

This comment I made at the end of my nutrition tracker today:

Wait a minute! I thought I "blew it". I was ready to blow off the rest of my day when I looked at the damage report here on my tracker. My carbs are over 200. I knew by mid afternoon I would not make my 135 protein, less than 165 carb and around 30-60 fat gram "perfection". But this is NOT about perfection. It is what I can do consistently day in and day out. DS brought home ice cream It's been in the freezer for 24 hours. Ice cream is a temptation. I succombed to 1.5 cups. There was a time that I would have eaten more. I'm good with protein for today. I noticed that I did not "crave" the ice cream like in the past. In fact, I think the 3 ODWALLA protein drinks that I bought on sale and tried to drink over the last 24 hours weakened by resolve. Just a thought. Also, I think I was EXXPECTING more craving. I asked DS to serve me half cup only of ice cream--which he did. I went back for 1 more cup.
